Greene et al. between a paper and previously published work. As a result, most recent papers in the CBR conferences series (from 2005 onwards) did not feature strongly in the clusters generated on co-citation data.

E. non-seed) set of papers was used to provide additional information regarding co-citations, only the 672 seed papers and their associated authors were considered as data objects in our analysis. In addition to the information provided by citation links, the availability of paper titles and abstracts in the RIS format allowed us to construct an alternative view of the seed papers, in the form of a “bag-of-words” text representation. After applying standard stemming, stop-word removal and TF-IDF pre-processing techniques, the 672 conference papers were represented by feature vectors corresponding to 1487 unique terms.
